First off let me say hello to you guys, I just joined the forum today.
I have been looking for a good first rifle for a month or two now and I've gone through too many reviews and forum posts to count. I am looking for good rifle for punching holes in paper at a fairly far distances and sub-MOA preferably. I won't be doing any hunting at all and probably won't be hand loading for a few years.
I have come down to 4 options that I think are very viable for a first rifle but I want to know what you guys think.
Marlin XS7. [I have heard good things about this gun with hand loads but can't find any thing about factory loads]
Savage Stevens. [I have seen very mixed reviews on this one but I am really interested in it]
Savage Edge. [I was really interested in this one but the stiff trigger worries me]
TC Venture. [The Venture is way above my budget but it may be worth it and the 5R rifling interests me]
So, which one if these do you guys think is the best in terms of accuracy and quality? I am open to suggestions too.
Also, I know that these are hunting rifles and will never be as accurate as a target rifle but its the best I can do currently.
